GrooveSession's Official Recording Policy (Updated as of Dec 21, 2016)

Recording:

Audience taping is permitted at all shows by GrooveSession. Guest performances by band members with other artists will be governed by that artist's policy. When GrooveSession is performing at a festival or other event featuring multiple bands, that particular event's policy may override GrooveSession customary taping policy.
Currently, there is no pre-designated taper section at GrooveSession shows so there is no specific permission or ticket necessary to record. Equipment location and microphone placement is governed, first by the venue and secondly, by the audio engineer and sound crew for that show. Some venues also require that the band let them know that they have someone recording the show.
At this time SOUNDBOARD RECORDINGS ARE ALLOWED as well as ONSTAGE RECORDINGS. However, GrooveSession and the venue reserve the right to over-ride any of these.
Tapers must bring and are responsible for all of their own equipment and at no time will an audio engineer or sound-crew member provide cables, microphones or other items to assist tapers in recording. In many cases, power supplies are nearby and readily available, but tapers should at all time carry ample extension cords (along with tape to tape down cords to avoid tripping hazards) and power strips as to avoid requesting unnecessary assistance. Anyone found taping in violation of the above policy will be removed from the venue and unauthorized recordings will be confiscated.
The enjoyment of the audience in attendance at a concert always takes precedence over recording efforts. This means that at no time should tapers ever require other patrons to be quiet or otherwise interfere with their enjoyment of the show. If any audience members are being extremely disrespectful please contact venue staff to handle this.

Duplication:

All participants in audio recording exchange (regardless of format) acknowledge and respect the copyrights and exclusive ownership of the music and performances by the performers, writers and publishers.
All taping must be for personal use only, which may include trading (via analog or digital tape, CD, or digital file transfer). Recordings may be traded only for an equivalent amount of similar media (cassettes or CDs, pre-recorded or blank). Regardless of any expenses incurred, no money may ever be exchanged as part of a trade; however, stamped, self-addressed envelopes may be included with blank media. In addition, the mediums by which audio trading is publicized may not be commercialized. Therefore newsletters, web sites, clubs, or any other communication forum facilitating audio trading cannot accept advertising, offer links for compensation, exploit databases compiled from their traffic, or otherwise derive any commercial profit in any form. Stores or businesses may not offer to duplicate GrooveSession media for customers or sell or otherwise provide media containing unreleased GrooveSession music for any price. A statement of compliance with this policy must be clearly posted on all web sites engaged in trading activity.
If we have chosen to offer for sale (via physical media such as CD, or via digital download) a particular performance by GrooveSession, this "official" version will take precedence over amateur recordings being offered for download. In these instances, we require that digital audio repositories remove any recording of these particular performances from their collections within 7 days of the official release or 7 days of GrooveSession announcing the intention to release, whichever is earlier. Notwithstanding the above, GrooveSession reserves the right to require immediate removal of any unreleased GrooveSession material. It is the responsibility of the site host to remain informed of the current list of GrooveSession officially-released recordings and to maintain their site accordingly. In no case may any officially-released GrooveSession recording (live or studio) be duplicated or otherwise traded or offered. Broadcast of unreleased GrooveSession recordings via: radio or online is permissible only if it conforms to all the guidelines applicable to other forms of duplication.
Audience taping at GrooveSession concerts is authorized for non-commercial purposes only. Unauthorized sale, duplication and/or distribution are strictly forbidden. All performances by GrooveSession and recordings are the exclusive property of GrooveSession. All rights reserved. The rights to record GrooveSession performances set forth in this policy constitute an express, revocable license. We reserve the right to withdraw our sanction of recording, tape trading, and/or non-commercial digital audio file transfers on a case specific basis or in general, as we deem necessary. No waiver of any copyright or trademark right is intended.

If you are aware of any person or site in violation of this policy, please inform us. Thank you.
